"They're not looking for more square footage, they're looking for a better house that feels like home"

While in design school a friend handed me the book The Not So Big House by Sarah Susanka. As I read through the intro and first few chapters I thought 'she gets it'. "More rooms, bigger spaces, and vaulted ceilings do not necessarily give us what we need in a home".

It was an honor to interview Sarah. She talked about why we are so dissatisfied with our largest purchase, and what to do moving forward. (A hint...her book Home By Design will transform the way you think about your home.)
